Voices in Leadership | Growing Leaders and Strengthening Communities in Senior Living

In this episode of Voices in Leadership, host Melissa Andrews, President and CEO of LeadingAge Virginia, sits down with Josh Lyons, President and CEO of Sunnyside Communities. Josh reflects on his path into senior living—a journey shaped in part by his father’s tenure as Sunnyside’s CEO—and shares how that early exposure fueled his commitment to the field. He discusses his passion for developing future leaders, the strong culture that defines Sunnyside, and the spirit of collaboration among local senior living organizations. Josh also offers a glimpse into his life outside of work, sharing stories about his family and hobbies. The conversation wraps with an optimistic look at the future of senior living and the vital role of community engagement in supporting older adults.
